Scion Media Day

So yesterday was the Scion Media/Practice/Testing/Shake Down day for the Scion Racing Drift Team. I had to test out a new motor that RS-R built after we had blown the motor at Sonoma. The engine turned out to be stronger and hopefully. more reliable. I wanted to test out different spring rates but we ran out of time.
Media ride alongs were also happening so I took some people on a ride and they seemed to be happy! =)
My friend Ove from Norway was nice enough to stop by and check out Irwindale Speedway. He also brought me some t-shirts from his own brand Drift Monkey. Check it out! http://www.driftmonkey.no
Wrecked Magazine Joey was there so he took some pictures and Im going to use them.
But you can find them here on his website:

anyway,
here are some pictures of the event!



In the 1st picture you can see a Lancer Evolution with some crazy camera rig.
Rich Rutherford (a former Formula Drift driver) was driving that thing while it took footage of Tanner driving. It was intense!!





Johan from Rogue Status was also there practicing in his RHD S13 Silvia.

Irwindale, here we come!!!
